Why do people like to chew gum? Some people say they like the taste. Other say they can think better when

Gum is mixture of several things. For many years gum companies made gum from chicle, it is a natural gum
from a tree in Mexico and Central America. Now companies use plastic and rubber made from petroleum instead of
chicle.
Gum must be soft so you can chew it. A softener keeps it soft. The gum companies make the softener from
vegetable oil. A sweetener makes the gum sweet, this sweetener is usually sugar. Then the companies adds the flavor.
Thomas Adam made the first gum from chicle in 1836. However, chewing gum was not new. The Greeks

chewed gum from a tree over 2000 years ago. Mayan Indians in Mexico chewed chicle. Indians in the northeastern
United States taught Europeans to chew gum from a tree there.
